Seorgas Carpentier, the heavyweight shampion boxer of Kurope and idoi of France, was defeated tccay by W ting Siki, the Senegaiese fightsr the sixth round of what was to havy been a twenty-round boii Carpentier never had a chance afi the third rourd. He was barely al:’ to respona 1o the beil at the hexia ning of the sixth. With Lis § - U ~ompletely closed anl Mis nose °n he was unable io Dt up In the sixth the negro fighter plarn ~d a sesles of terrific rignts to C nentier'’s nead, and the French idel crumpled to the floor. One of his legs caught betwe tive legs f the Sem- cgalese whila ne was falllae The crowd, the largest that ever witnessed a boxing contest in France, nensed the end. All was uproar. Many persons jumped into the ring and car- ried the Senegalese on their should- ers to his corner. The referee, Harry Bermein. at tirst ruled that Siki had been dis- qualified for “tripping,” but the crowd which considered that Carpentier has been beaten squarely by a better man, received the decision, with a great chorus of hoots and jeers and even threatened the referee with bodily harm. The three judges of the fight, Victor Breyer, Jean Pujol, Franchmen and - Mr. Bennison, of Londen, went into- consultation. An hour later they declared the negro the winmer. Their verdict was received with terrific cheering from the spectators who had remained. in tMe arena for it, many of them in an ugly mood. Carpentier bad been hogted by large numbers of the crowd as he was taken from the ring to his dressing room . The defeat of Carpentier was en- tirely unexpected. Carpentier was the favorite when the men entered the ring, and the crowd was dumfounded when they' saw their idol pummelci all over the ring and subjected to ter- ritic punishment at the hands of the big black. Carpentier trled every trick of his knowledge to stave off defeat. Twice he was warned for butting during the fifth round. It seemed evident that he was anxious to be disqualified b The referee rather than to suffer the subterfuges hecame apparent the wd, which peviously had been pulling” for him merl and hooted, and cheered the n Whei the gong so r\ded at the he- ginning of the fight Siki appeared imid. He covered uv in fear of Car- r's “terrible’ right.” ‘The Sene- howeve cage afte; o the jaw ng received four rights which failed to make the t impression on him. Carpen- ® faco took on a puzzled look as he burly battler took his blows and same hack looking for more. 8o confident was Carpentier of ul- Admats victory, however, that he was smiling as he went to his corner when the gong ended the first round. “T'll get him whenever I want te,” he said to. Francois Descamps, his manager and trainer. The crowd evidently was of the =ame opihion as Carpentier, for it lustily cheered Georges, the Senegal- e not having landed a solid blow up to that time. “Qeorges {s letting him stay for the moving pictures,” 2, was an expression heard from vari- ous epectators. The big Senegalese evidently was considered a kind of sacrificial offering to the prowess. of Georges Carpentier for the edification of the boxing enthusiasts. The French champion appeared thin. His complexion was sallow and his face drawn, but he had stripped off apparently in. good . condition for the fray, albeit somewhat “fine.” Among tHe great multitude in the new Buf- falo stadium it would not he ventur- Ng a guess to say there were com- paratively few who believed the Sen- *galese would ‘be returned the win- aer. Georges' weight was announced at 73 1-2 pounds. Siki strippad a beautiful picture of aedlth and condition. His skin was like ebony as compared with the whiteness of that of the Frenchman. Carpentier smiled in his usual debo- nair style as the bathrobe of the black man fell from his shoulders. On the first round Siki rushed out of his corner and met Carpentier be- fore the Frenchman was fairly out of his chair. Carpentier, however, caught the bla straight rights. Siki covered up, and then went down te one knee from a light left. The referee orZered him up. rights to the jaw. Siki took them, merely shaking his head and bored in. ‘arpentier's face wore a puzzled ex- pressior. although plainly he holing back. blow.

Also he had lost his confident smiie. In the third round Siki rushed from Ais corner toward Carpentier. Carpen- der backed away and sparred cau- tiously. Then he feinted with his left, and, obtaining an opening, drove. a hard right to Siki's jaw. The negro dropped to one knee dnd took a count of seven. Then he ~jumped up and saught Carpentier with left and right iwings to . the stomach. Carpentier went down and took a count of four. When the Frenchman arose he was plainly groggy. Siki, seeing his ad- vantage showered rights wnd lefts |T: apon him, always playing for the stomach. He had Carpentler gasping 'or breath and staggering at the end e of the round. In the fourth round Siki pumméled Sarpentier all over the ring. The Frénchman was barely able to stand the punishment. He was bleeding, his right eye was closed, his nose was flattened and his mouth was wide op- en. Carpentier resorted to all the known tricks of his long experience. He endeavored to hold the.arms of the negro under his own armpits. Siki, over-anxious to finish hjs man missed many blows that would have ended the bout had they landed. Meanwhile Georges occasionally shot wicked rights against his: opponent, which, however, failed to slow him up. Up to. this time the negro showed no marks.of punishment. In the fifth round Siki again sprang to the offengive from his corner, in- tending ' quickly w"rponnh off ' the Carpentier: met the with a low. blow and was warned by Referse Bernstein.

As he placed Car- pentier on his feet the Frenchman swung blindly a wicked left to Siki's . This caused the crowd to hoot and jeer Carpentier. The reversal of the first decision iof the referee in giving the bout to Carpentier on an alleged foul proba- bly saved the boxing game in France jfrom a blackeye, as the crowd appar- |ently was unwilling to countenance a defeated man, and helpless, being declared the win- igrominy of n knockout. “When his|™ two. rounds, This particularly was true by rea- son of the fact that there had been two other disqualifications in the pre- liminaries, both fighters who profited by the decisions belonging to the “sta- " of Francojs Descamps, Carpen- The two men \tier's manager. received the favorable decisions were Fritxch, who won the Olympic feath- erweight title in 1920, when Billy Mer- of England was declared have hit him low in the third round. and Charley Ledousx, clared the winner over Renny Thomas, in the eighth round- for lack of fighting spirit on the part of\ the Englishman.
